Hudy Quick-Tweak Station

Hudy have released their Quick-Tweak Station that allows you to quickly and easily check and correct tweak on your race car to help ensure proper, consistent handling. Suitable for 1/10th and 1/12th on-road cars thanks to its unique adjustable base plate system, its adjustable threaded support feet allow for quick & easy leveling. Rugged and lightweight base plates are CNC-machined from strong yet lightweight aluminum and black-coated for durability and stylish looks. Strategically milled-out cavities in the base plates make this tweak station much lighter than other similar products on the market and both left and right sides are identically weighted for perfect balance. Areas around the precision spirit level in the pivoting base plate are milled out to allow easy viewing from any position and laser-engraved track-width markings (160-220mm) are precisely & accurately engraved on the base plates. The center axle is specially ground to be perfectly straight & level with ends additionally hand ground for precision fitment into the manually-selected precision ball-bearings that are pressed into the base plates. The ball-bearings are degreased and lightly oiled with AeroShell 12T fluid for ultra-free and smooth operation. The Hudy Quick Tweak Station comes in an exclusive aluminum carrying case with pre cut foam inserts to allow easy & safe storage.

Hudy 1/10 Touring Set-up wheels

New from Hudy are these CNC-machined premium-quality aluminium set-up wheels for electric and nitro 1/10 tourin, which allows for perfect, precise and repeatable set-up adjustment and tweak correction. Precision-machined to exacting tolerances, each alu set-up wheel in a set is perfectly matched. When checking tweak on a rubber-tired touring car, using standard rubber tires typically gives non-precise and non-repeatable measurements. Rubber tires are never perfectly rounded, so when checking tweak one tire can lift earlier than another but this does not always indicate a tweaked car. Tire roundness and insert weight is different from one tire to the next. Also when checking tweak on a foam-tired touring car, the differences between tires are even greater than with rubber tires. Each foam tire has a different diameter after each run due to tire wear, making it impossible to check for tweak because the tires can give very misleading results. In this case the alu set-up wheels are the best tool for checking tweak.
